Abstract
In flux qubits, qubit states are commonly read out by a dc superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), which is inductively coupled to the qubit and works as a persistent current detector. However, neither the bottom nor the top regions of the critical current modulation curve of the SQUID can be used for the readout. In this paper, we show that a flux-trap loop inserted to the readout SQUID provides the ability to adjust the working point, which helps to avoid this constraint. This improvement is useful for some complicated flux qubit experiments.
